Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith
All I can say after I finished Rob Bell's book, Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith is: Wow! This book challenged me in my faith and taught me so much about how I need to approach my reading of the Bible.

The Hijacking of Jesus by Dan Wakefield
This book is sold as a polemic against the “Christian Right” and does engage in some fun Democratic party games like “Let’s draw parallels between the American Right and the Nazi Party in the late 20’s!”.

The Irresistable Revolution
Wow, what a challenging, convicting, mind blowing book. I picked this up randomly, and thought it might be interesting. Who in youth ministry wouldn’t be intrigued by a book that looks like a cardboard box with duct tape on it?

Jesus Land
Julia Scheeres book Jesus Land is difficult book to read. Wonderfully written and captivating, the hard truth of fundamental Christianity can be a hard pill to swallow. And it's not all fundamental Christians, just the ones that Julia encounters and writes about in this memoir of her life.
